PCT No. PCT/DE96/01201 Sec. 371 Date May 27, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date May 27, 1997 PCT Filed Jul. 3, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO97/12781 PCT Pub. Date Apr. 10, 1997An accelerator pedal modules for a motor vehicle which is actuated by the driver's foot. A sensor is disposed in a common housing together with other components, a restoring spring assembly, a kickdown mechanism and an end switch secured relative to the accelerator pedal and each other. The sensor is disposed in a separate housing, and by a suitable embodiment of the pedal lever, the accelerator pedal module can be adapted to a specific vehicle without modification of the sensor. This makes it possible to produce a standard sensor in large quantities. When the accelerator pedal module is activated the pedal activates the sensor which sends an electrical signal to a controller via electrical lines. The sensor includes a restoring spring which forces the pedal back to its normal rest position. The device includes a friction device which causes a friction in order to apply a force against momentum of the pedal. The controller controls an output of a driving engine. At least one spring forces the pedal back to its rest position.
